I think this is hogwash. If anyone wants change, they would vote for someone like Ron Paul.
BHO still funds wars just like the neo-conservatives, just like Bush.
BHO still wants to leave troops in all the overseas bases, just like the neo-conservatives, just like bush.
BHO still wants to leave troops in Iraq for 5 or so years, they don't want a deadline, and BHO hasn't said a deadline, just a desire.
BHO still wants to spend money on the war on drugs (which has been proven that it is a waste. Plus, think of all the people who would not be in jail just because they had an ounce of weed), just like the neo-conservatives, just like Bush.
BHO still wants to continue the No Child Left Behind Act, a failed Bush policy.
BHO still wants to continue the Patriot Act, just like Bush.
BHO still wants the Real ID Act, just like the neo-conservatives, just like Bush.
I'm not seeing a whole lot of difference between BHO and the neo-conservatives here...
